Great customer service and everyone who helped me or that I spoke with were excellent and helped greatly with very specific needs.Pleasant staff and manager was very friendly and loved how he treated his staff.They all seemed to get along very well and professional and down to earth with customers.They have so many items for decor and crafts and hobbies.Beautiful store with lots of beautiful pieces to add to your home like lamps, art, prints, tables, pillows, curtains, a fabric area, prints and photo area, and so much! Items for scrapbook ingredients, sewing, stamping, art supplies ( kids, beginners and more seasoned artists) beautiful candles and wall art, lovely journals and so many items large and small and everything in between. I have been there many times but just went again recently and forgot how much I love this store. I will definitely be returning again soon. Great affordable prices and excellent customer service. They also have lots of kids art and activity sets and great gift ideas. Also great way to style your home and get creative without breaking the bank! Holiday and seasonal items also available. Definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for any of the above listed, or even just to stop in to check it out!Plenty of parking. Great location right off the hiway. Easy access to hiway on and off. Had great experience and even a return was handled wonderfully. Ill be back back sure!

I have always loved hobby love you very much because that they are a Christian focused organization. But I must say I love them even more now because they even have Jeep products. Every time I enter this store I am a listless so conflicted because I have a limited budget and cant buy the entire store.

Terrible customer service. The girl at the cash register completely walked away after she took the money and let our stuff everywhere and stuck so I had to get it unstuck myself and grab everything. She was extremely rude. I will not be coming back to this store ever again.

The store was well stocked. Many varieties of craft items. Clean, neat. Only one register to cash out, line was long but went fast. Christian based store from what I get from the decor. (They dont 😤support👭 l,g👬,b,👫q)

The Frontage Road location is huge, has an incredible selection of crafts for every hobby from yarn and sewing (my favs), to painting, paper crafts and everything in between! They also have a huge selection of home decor items and some furniture. This has now become my go-to spot ahead of Joanns and Michaels.

My wife made out great, but the area I love, (superhero area), was blocked off due to an AC problem and leak from the ceiling.

Hobby Lobby has an extended variety of craft supplies that you can’t find at Michaels, A.C. Moore or JoAnns. They also offer a large selection of home decor, fabric, yarn (I Love This Yarn is the best), painting supplies, silk flowers, and lots more. It’s definitely worth the trip. We drive 40 minutes because of the selection. Make sure to download the Hobby Lobby app and take advantage of coupons.

This store is awesome. Went there to check out what they had to offer for arts and crafts and was not disappointed at all. The store is both well organized and well kept (clean). All the displays were put together professionally. The prices are very reasonable, and your options seem limitless. I would definitely recommend this store to everyone. It located within a minute off of I95.

I love this store,found what I was looking for. I am rating this two stars BC, customer service is very important. no matter if an employee is busy or stressed out, you don’t talk to people with an attitude. Asked employee where something was and she gave me an awful attitude. I felt like I was bothering her. I didn’t see a name tag but she made me feel as if she did not want to help. awful customer service. I went to pay for my stuff & now the cashier is unprofessional as ever. She had her cell phone in her hand & put me on hold before saying hello to me.

Who doesnt love Hobby Lobby? Great options. Excellent prices. This store is well-stocked with every possible home decor style or craft accessory you could imagine or desire. Its super organized, clean, and in a central location. Staff are friendly and helpful. Checkout lines are pretty quick. Oh, and the online 40% coupon is a bonus!

Review №57

Clean store, maybe need more employees to assist in out of reach items. Most were friendly, but at my return visit, a bit of an attitude at the 1st register for myself and another customer during our returns. Just didnt seem like he wanted to be there.

Review №59

I have always loved hobby lobby they have a wonderful selection of craft items and there prices are reasonable. The reason for 4 stars is because of the lines you have to wait in when you are checking out. Imagine you go shopping for 30 min only to wait in line for 20 min. Other than that the staff is helpful if you can find one. I really like that they let there staff have off on Sunday’s. I believe all business should celebrate the sabbath. Will be back soon I am sure.

There are some really beautiful country, folk style art for the home that I cant seem to find anywhere else. On top of beautiful art supplies, yarn, frames. Anything you could want. Some of it has a Christian touch to it. When I went last week it was 40% off of all fall decorations, so I got some really nice stuff. One thing to remember that Hobby Lobby is closed on Sundays! Very nice store, definitely worth the trip!

Review №77

This Hobby Lobby is cavernous. It has a small amount of hundreds of items for crafts and hobbies. Employees are helpful but you will need to search for them. My biggest complaint is the cash registers, you have to remember the discount amount for every sale item. The sales system is 30 years old.

Review №79

I buy in the East Haven store and almost always find what I want. As others have said the checkout lines are under staffed, sometimes making it slow going. I use the coupon from my iPhone every time I go there, which lowers what some call high prices, considerably. I had compared their prices with A C Moore, and find them competitive. The help is no better or worst than other stores that I shop in. It’s a problem every businesses have today. I don’t have an issue with the store being closed on Sunday. I’m not a religious person, and feel every business has a right to run their business as they see fit. For whatever reason. Knowing they close Sundays, I plan my projects around their closing. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure, hey they’re closed Sunday, I’d better get what I need Saturday. I would have given them 5 stars if not for the sometimes slow checkout.

Best frame shop around. Period. Prices are far better than competition and Karen is a real pro to work with. Not someone who happens to do framing as part of her job...but a seasoned professional with great intuition and an artistic eye for framing things right.

Always very clean and neat. Staff is nice. Would have given it 5 stars but there is always only one register open at a time for checkout. Other than that this place is great

Huuuge place. Has a little bit of everything, including; baking, crafts, furniture, science (to make bathbombs and the such), ect. Itll take a few hours too look at everything so its a great way to pass the time.

Review №87

Sooooo many items there! I need to go back to see the rest of the store. It was brightly lit, well stocked and had a nice assortment of things. Although, from what I looked at, it seemed to be quite a bit more expensive than the other two craft supply stores. I do love that its owned by a company with Christian values.

Review №94

Lots of decorative items for a hobby/craft store. Could have more crafting items in each of the different crafting sections. 40% coupon online can be used once a day is perk! Closed on Sundays, (religious owners) who walk the walk but I dont believe they should force their beliefs on employees.
